Sophie had watched as the DMA had quickly closed in on her location, from a shady alley way. Why would they be closing in on such a location on such a lovely day? Well it wasn't because they were going on a picnic, that's for sure. No, the reason why they were here was because, though they didn't realize it yet, they were trying to find her. About 4 hours prior, she had committed a, what the DMA deems as, heinous crime against the government and terrorism; she had just killed a bunch of DMA agents and released multiple metahumans from a convoy on their way to Manhattan, and single handedly at that. Yes, the ambush was orchestrated, and solely done, by her and her alone. Of course, it would make sense why the DMA sent 3 wardens to this location if they knew what they were up against.
They were closing in on her location, and fast. However, just as Sophie was bracing herself for a fight with her thumb pressed firmly against the switch to her lighter, before she could flick the switch and turn everything to ash; a strange girl appeared, that caused her to hesitate and watch as things played out. Of course, when it finally started to look like things were about to get ugly, Sophie finally flicked the switch to her lighter and a wall of fire poured out between the strange girl and the DMA agents. Walking out of the alley way and wearing nothing more than an old, dirty flannel outer layer, maroon camisole, black skinny jeans, and worn out, black sneakers, Sophie quickly analyzed the periphery as she walked over to the girl.
"Sorry, boys, but I'm afraid that's as far as you go. I can't let you take another one of my people to that hell hole of a 'research center' and torture another innocent. So do me a huge favor and all of you just piss off!" She said over the wall of fire, stopping at the girl's side, shooting her a quick glare before returning her cool, calm gaze to the 3 DMA agents. She lowered her voice to a murmer so that only the girl could hear her.
"Sorry, sweetheart, but I'm afraid I'm cutting your little chat short. I don't know your reason for going after the DMA and I honestly don't give a damn. However, I DO care as to whether or not these assholes experiment on another one of my people. I could be completely wrong and you have this entire situation under control, but I'm not gonna take that risk. So do me a favor and keep your mouth shut and do as I say, so we can both live to fight another day and do what we need to do regarding the DMA, alright?"She then raised her voice again.
"So what's it gonna be, boys? Are you gonna let us walk or we gonna have to talk this out through bullets, Sergeant Thorne?" Her voice became sharp like a razor as she addressed the Sergeant.
